Iconic ’80s pop group Culture Club will be reunited for a new record come 2015, and will be re-introducing themselves to American audiences with a string of six bi-coastal live dates this fall. Of course, there is no Boston date — yet.

See the full run of shows below.

From the presser: “The tour is set to commence in November on the west coast and, for the first time in 14 years, all the original Culture Club band members — Mikey Craig (bass guitar), Roy Hay (guitar and keyboards), Jon Moss (drums and percussion) and flamboyant front-man Boy George (lead vocals) — will perform together. Tickets for their upcoming North American shows go on-sale this Friday and will be available at www.CultureClub.co.uk

Also of note: Boy George will also be making an appearance Thursday as a speaking guest with Taylor Swift on NBC’s Late Night with Seth Meyers.

Culture Club’s new record will be produced by Flood, and serves as their first since 1999’s Europe- and Japan-only released Don’t Mind If I Do. 1986’s From Luxury to Heartache is considered the new wave group’s breakup record, spawning Boy George’s solo career.
